Why don't you just read the freaking comment I made in my first post in this thread. The fishy part ... and many of us.

Maybe you have lost command of the english language?

I never made any claims at all about it. None.

I did note that I did not believe that it was a good idea to consider it as a production platform.

Your comments in that area are pretty clear. You claimed that people should consider running production systems on it. You claimed that you knew people that were doing that.

There was 1 release of oracle on Mac with no patchsets and no 10.2 release and no 11.1 release planned.

There is no future there ... rac or not.
